p.s. Justice Ribeiro PJ, “In the absence of actual knowledge, a solicitor is bound to adopt an agnostic approach towards the client’s instructions in carrying out his professional duties since it is not his business to judge their truth or falsity. The solicitor or barrister may privately harbour distinct feelings of sceptism about his client’s story but that is wholly beside the point. Professionally, he is required to abstrain from forming any belief one way or the other on the topic. For a court to attribute guilty knowledge or belief and criminal liability to the legal adviser in such circumstances would gravely endanger the fundamental right to legal advice and representation.
